Rabbi Howard Morrison

Dear Congregational Family,

While we as Canadian Jews live North of the United States, we are sensitive to the events that have transpired over the past week, which began with the morally reprehensible murder of George Floyd at the hands of law enforcement officials.

In the last few days, I have read responses from many Jewish organizations. I find the following statement by the O.U. (Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America) to be a fine response.

Here in Canada, we are proud to live in a multi-cultural society which embraces diversity. We must always be vigilant to ensure mutual respect and positive relationships.

Rabbi Howard Morrison
